Itunes (UK) won't accept my American Express?

Hi, I tried to make an account with itunes using my American Express Red card but after typing in all the details correctly several times, itunes kept saying it was an unvalid form of payment for UK itunes. Has anyone else had this problem?

Have been in touch with iTunes and the response from them is that they do not accept American Express Red cards at the moment but hopefully will some time in the future. Until then they recommend using another card.
As far as I can tell Apple accept the card on other services so this does not make much sense at all.

ITunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?

iTunes store won't accept my password from my iPhone 5 this morning. Ideas? Know issues?
And no matter how many times nor what I change the password to I cannot log in to purchase music.
Help!

I tried "resetting" my password, but b****y iTunes just keeps asking me for ANOTHER password, and won't accept the password I want to use! I'm getting mighty fed up with iTunes - I'm a senior citizen, and my memory isn't as sharp as it might have been, so passwords HAVE to be fairly simple and OBVIOUS to me. I can't just keep thinking up new passwords because they are getting more and more irrelevant, and I will NEVER remember them.
What am I supposed to do now?
I can't use my iPhone when I'm out of the house, because it won't recognise my new email address and password. I can't use BTFON because it needs my password, which I can't get iTunes to accept.
I can't get the bloody thing to do anything, and although it cost me £600 when I bought it 2 years ago, I'm not very happy with it any more because I just can't get the thing to do anything.
HELP!!!!

Itunes 7 won't connect to airport express

i installed itunes 7.02 and now my airport express won't connect. I've read many of the discussions and have done all of the ipv6 recommendations etc. but to no avail. Very frustrated! Apple screwed up big time.

Help! ever since i downloaded itunes 7 for windows
(big mistake, as we all know) it won't connect to the
air port express. it sees it, attempts to connect,
but times out every time. anyone have any ideas?
I have the same problem on one AE unit that is more distant from the base but not on another. It also fails now to connect to Olive Musica in my main listening room. With these problems, I wonder whether an update fix can be far off?

ITunes store won't accept my password

Just changed ISPs (from Orange Wanadoo to BTInternet. Had the 'engineer' come out and do all the connecting stuff because I ALWAYS get it wrong.
He said he had connected everything and all would be OK.
But it isn't.
I wanted to check email on my iPhone, and it wouldn't. Took my phone to an O2 shop (where I bought it from) and bloke there got it going eventually.
Back home, I want to download the BTFON app, but when I enter my iTunes password, it is rejected.
Can't understand what is going on, and getting very, very angry with it because virtually nothing works like it did.
Can anyone PLEASE tell me what to do to get my iPhone to accept an app download from iTunes?
Many thanks,
Bill

The itunes not accept the American Express card, Which I have to do?

Can you help me?

Nope. You need an .ipsw file to restore your phone & since your friend didn't have iTunes, obviously there is no current .ipsw file to use. You can go to an Apple store, use your own computer, find another computer, but you can't restore without a current signed .ipsw file.

Im trying to add a ringtone but iTunes 11 won't accept my .m4r file

I have recently made a ringtone in Adobe Audition for my iPhone 4. Apon completion, I saved the file as .mp3, but but later changed it to .m4r. I looked threw a few discussions and tried nearly all that was suggested to me, (such as...) going to "File" "Add to Library" *Select ringtone "Add". Everybody's telling me it will add the "Tones"File but it won't add it, iTunes completely ignores what I am trying to do. I've tried going threw "Finder" and adding it manually... But iTunes still just ignores it. I'm not sure what to do at this point so I shall ask the community...

This is embarassing... Problem solved, I found another page that told me I had to go into iTunes and tell the iPhone to sync tones. I had no knowledge of this step until now, very sorry. Everyone who see's this question, please remember to do that last step. All of my ringtones work now.

App store won't open and itunes store won't accept my apple id.

MY macbook pro, running Maverick 10.9.5 will not open itunes store (12.0.1.26) software updates or app store or icloud, (which may be the culprit). I can log into this forum and my ID works on my Imac itunes, so it is not an identity or connection problem. IT is specific to the Macbook. I have spent a couple of days trying to sort this, but I am not very good at code sort of stuff. I have double checked all the date time location stuff. I have tried doing the utility- teminal stuff. When I try to login to store it just doesn't open. and Apps and Updates is a grey screen with no response. Icloud just whirligigs out and doesn't open either, when I try to log on. sort of annoying as I cannot get updates. I had this problem before and sorted it by getting the serial number added because it was missing from an earlier repair. Please can anyone tell me what is happening, I can go into my Apple account and check details and stuff like that I just cannot access through itunes or app store on this computer.

Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.

HT201303 My iTunes account won't accept my debit card number and I'm not sure why. It said to contact support

HT1918 i left a job and had ipad with itunes, i need to remove my american express from my ipad

also need to get rid of itunes for my iphone 5 as well

What I would do if handing back those devices is:
1. go into your iCloud account settings and disable find my iPhone.
2. go into settings->general->reset->Erase all content and settings
That will remove activation lock (1) so the next person who gets the device can activate it, and two, will delete all of your personal information, documents and data (basically renders the device back to the original pre-activation state it was in out of the box).

ITunes (Windows) won't connect to Airport Express

I've recently upgraded to version 10.2.1 and now when I try to play music on my Living Room speakers, I get an error saying, "An error occurred. The network connection failed." (My Mac computer has no problem) Apparently, issue is with 10.2.1 and Windows 7. I tried the "repair" function in Control Panel, but it didn't help. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

I just saw your post - I posted the same thing a little after you did. Did you figure out the problem? I haven't gotten any answers yet to my post.

ITunes 11 won't take my .m4r files :/

I know this has been asked a million times, but I am having a serious problem with trying to get a ringtone on my phone :/ I have tried every solution I've found on here and everywhere else on the web where I've found a "solution" tons of people happy that their problems have been solved and so easily by everything I've tried, but I'm beginning to think that I am a unique case. I have gone through every step: selecting a file, get info, choosing section (the file is only 4 seconds long), creating an AAC version, moving the AAC to the desktop, changing it from .m4a to .m4r, deleting both .mp3 and .aac files from my library, aaaaaaaaaaaand that's where it goes wonky :/
I've tried to drag it into iTunes, it won't accept it. Simply put, nothing happens at all.
I've tried to go under file and "Add file to library" to no avial.
I've gone into the files and created a folder for Tones and added it to that; nope.
I've removed the .mp3 file and then used iTunes to "locate" the .m4r file. This makes it work on iTunes, but it wouldnt sync to my phone.
In my latest attempt, I went into iTunes media and dropped the .m4r file into the "Automatically add to iTunes". It vanished as soon as it went it, and a new Tones folder was created in media next to music. I lept for joy thinking I was done; but I should've known better :/ I sync'd my iPhone 4 and sure enough, the file was not there under tones.
I give up...
Someone please help :c thanks in advance

Had to rebuild iTunes library and it won't accept most of the videos it previously had? Why?

I'm having a strange problem with iTunes -
My boot hard drive recently crashed and took iTunes and my library with it. Fortunately I had all of the music and video files themselves backed up on another drive. When I reinstalled the OS and iTunes and then attempted to add all of the music and video files back into the new, blank iTunes, it accepted all of my music files but it kept crashing when I tried to add the video files back in.
The details: using a 24" iMac 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with OS X version 10.9.4 both before and after the hard drive crash, and iTunes version 11.2.2 was my working copy of iTunes with all of my media files happily loaded in it's library, but the newly installed iTunes was at first 11.3.0 and now 11.3.1. Neither with version 11.3.0 nor 11.3.1 will it load all the video files into the library (haven't tried downgrading to 11.2.2, maybe I should? but we'll get to that in a minute).
I have about 300 video files of several different file types (.mpg, .mp4, .m4v, .mov) which over the years I had added to iTunes as I acquired them, and at the time of the hard drive failing, they were ALL in my iTunes library and I'd never had iTunes reject any file types. They all played fine as well as being a part of the library. And since I had added them over the years, they were added during quite a few different versions of iTunes as it was upgraded over time.
So, after I added all the music back into iTunes on the new drive, I attempted to add the videos all at one go, but it crashed after only 5 or so files being incorporated. Thinking it may have been too many at once, I tried adding them in smaller batches, but had the same problem. I took a look at what it had added before crashing each time, and found that every time it would load only mpeg 4 files, either .mp4 or .m4v, and would crash as soon as it encountered an .mpg or .mov. So I added all 50 or so of the mpeg 4's, and then tried adding the .mov and .mpg files individually and found that no matter which one it was, it was apparently the file type it didn't like, not the individual files themselves. Randomly trying about 75 led me to that conclusion, but I didn't try all 250, so I guess it's possible there might be some .mpg's it would take, however I only had about 10 .mov files and it won't take ANY of them. Considering all of these files regardless of their type were part of my old iTunes library for years and worked just fine, I don't understand why it won't take them again. I tried adding them by dragging them to the open iTunes pane, and by using the import command, and neither way works, all that happens is it crashes. Every time.
I tried converting these files to mpeg 4 types, and when I do that, it will take the converted version. However, a lot of them don't come out right when converting them, either the audio is messed up or the dimensions of the movie are incorrect and stretched or squished. It seems I could fix this problem by making sure every video file I add is an mpeg 4, but since I'm having so much trouble converting them properly and it's terribly time consuming, I was hoping someone would have insight into this strange, strange problem. I tried to see if this was a known issue with iTunes, that it only takes mpeg 4 files now, but I can't find anything about that. Anyone know if that's the case? And therefore hopefully an upcoming patch will fix it? Or is it just a weird, weird problem with me only?
Very frustrating, hopefully someone can help me out. Even if there's no apparent fix, maybe someone can recommend a good application for converting movie files that is easy enough to use for someone who's not familiar with the process, i.e. maybe it can auto-detect things like the audio quality and dimensions so it comes out right without me having to be a real whiz at it? Thank you all very much in advance for your help!

OK, so I have now found that this is apparently normal for iTunes, to only accept mpeg 4 movie files, all the searching I did before I must have worded it wrong because I couldn't find anything about this, incredibly. Had been looking for why iTunes won't take all the files it previously did, like if it had been changed, and it hasn't, it's allegedly always taken only mpeg 4 files. Also I had been searching for why iTunes crashes every time I try and add/import anything but mpeg 4 files, and even sometimes with mpeg 4 files. That isn't normal, it's supposed to just do nothing apparently as I've just found out. So for these reasons I didn't find the answer despite my searching all over the web.
So I guess that answers my own question now, but I'm still perplexed as to why I absolutely, definitely, without any doubt, had several hundred movies of a few different video file types loaded, accessible and playable in my iTunes library that everything here claims iTunes never accepted. It apparently shouldn't have been possible for me to have done this, but for probably 10 years it's been this way.
Perhaps since I don't remember adding these files to iTunes anymore recently than maybe 6 or 7 years ago, the iTunes back then did accept all kinds of file types? Or could I have somehow had some video codecs or software that expanded the capability of my movie players like Quicktime Player that unwittingly also allowed iTunes to take those files as well? All I know is somehow it worked! So now my question is how did I have it working before, so that maybe I can make it work again.

I purchased an iTunes gift certificate with my Canadian-based American Express card (I live there) and had it emailed as a gift to someone at a hotel in the U.S.; Now, he cannot seem to use it. Apple online said it is cause it's only usable in Canada! Wha

I bought a gift certificate from iTunes, online, for someone travelling in the U.S. temporarily. He is a Canadian, I am a U.S. citizen, and I bought it using my Canda-based American express account, as I live in Canada. Now he is told by Apple on the telephone that he cannot use the certificate to buy anything as it was purchased on a computer in Canada. This seems utterly impossible! Does Apple have walls between countries? It seems to me that someone stuck in a hotel, with his iPhone, might want to purchase stuff from iTunes, but now it seems this cannot be done and he will have to return to Canada to use the certificate. What the heck kind of instant gift service is that!?
Anyone know how to deal with this? The person travelling is gone another couple of months. Anyone ever try for a refund from iTunes?

When you tried to contact Support with the card's images how were you trying to do it, on your phone or a browser on your computer ? And have you tried a different browser to see if you get the same error message ?
As well as images of the card they might also want an image of its receipt.
And to contact Support you were using : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ , and clicked on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then iTunes Cards And Codes ?

Itunes 10.6.3 won't accept my iPad2

I downloaded itunes 10.6.3 today. I was receiving an error message when I plugged in my iPad 2 to charge. But nothing has changed. My laptop won't accept the download to my iPad. And my iPad won't charge. What happens next?

An iOS device running iOS 6 requires iTunes 10.7 in order to sync. Start iTunes on your computer and use the menu to check for updates. If your computer OS can run iTunes 10.7 you will be given the opportunity to update iTunes. If your computer cannot run iTunes 10.7 no update will be available and you'll have to update the computers OS first.

If you're using a fourth generation or earlier iPod touch, click here and download the software.
If you're using a fifth generation iPod touch and an Intel Mac, buy Mac OS X 10.6 from the online Apple Store and run Software Update.
If you're using a fifth generation iPod touch and a PowerPC Mac, buy a newer computer.
